“…A variety of pharmacological activities are exhibited by quinazolinone derivatives [4][5][6], for example, 2-methyl-3-(o-tolyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-one (methaqualone) (R = CH 3 ) and 2-methyl-3-(o-chlorophenyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-one (meclaqualone) (R = Cl), have been used as hypnotic, sedative and anticonvulsive drugs [7,8].…”

“…[3][4][5] Similarly the sedative hypnotic (neurotoxic) properties of another pharmacophore, the 4-[3H]-quinazolinones are well documented. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] The prototype in this class of compound is methaqualone (2-methyl-3-ortho-tolyl-4-[3H]-quinazolinone) (Scheme 1). 19 In spite of the fact that according to the literature thousands of quinazolinones and 2-aminobenzothiazole related compounds have been synthesized and tested for a possible central nervous system depressant and anticonvulsant activity, no attempt has been made to incorporate the benzothiazole moiety and the quinazoline nucleus in a single molecular framework.…”

“…In the same manner one compound of the quinazolone series viz; 2-piperazino-4-quinazolone had hypoglycemic activity in some animal models but not others. No explanation was offered regarding the mechanism of action [2,3]. Currently, it is believed that this compound stimulates insulin release from the pancreas [4].…”
